Ron Rivera knows Cam Newton as well as any coach, having worked with the quarterback since he entered the NFL in 2011.The former Panthers coach Ray Guy Jersey , and current man in charge in Washington, believes the videos he's viewed of Newton's rehab workouts suggest the quarterback is back to being the player he was before injuries wiped out most of the past two seasons. Rivera believes Newton can recreate himself in New England."He's headed in the right direction," Rivera said on the . "I mean, he's probably about as healthy as it gets from what I've seen on video. I think he's ready to bust out Charles Woodson Jersey ."I would never bet against the young man, that's for sure."Rivera's Redskins declined to sign Newton to compete with second-year quarterback Dwayne Haskins, instead trading for Newton's former backup Kyle Allen.Despite the disinterest in reuniting with Newton, Rivera believes the QB who led his former team for nine seasons can finally bounce back from multiple shoulder surgeries and a foot Peyton Barber Jersey injury that relegated him to just two games in 2019."Don't bet against him," Rivera said. "I really wouldn't. First of all, you got to know who he is and understand what all he's gone through. He's a guy that's always tried to do Sam Young Jersey things, I think, because he's felt the pre sure. He felt the pre sure of being the No. 1 overall pick. He felt the pre sure of having won the Heisman Trophy and being the No. 1 overall pick. He felt the pre sure of Tim Brown Jersey being a black quarterback, with all the stuff that's been heaped on him."He's really had to find his way through it, and he's done a great job with it."Now, for the first time in his NFL career, Newton will have to find his way through a season with a new coach, new team and new city.
